I have gone hiking in Grizzly country, was hoping to shoot one (didn't).

I've jumped out of the door of a perfectly good airplane while the motor was running.
I've been to the top of Mt. Shasta in N. California (14,162ft)

Each and every time I've done something stupid (and exciting) I've always made sure that my equipment was appropriate for the occasion and that it was in good working order and that I knew how to use it.
No more, no less.

Sadly, I've never had my Z faster than about 130.

Maybe someday.....
But you can be sure that I would take every necessary precaution.

No offense taken. Hey there's no doubt about it. Its dangerous. You could become a big splat at those speeds. But if your gonna do it and you think you have the balls, the race track is going to be the best place. And as far as my wife seeing that video! Well lets just say what she doesn't know wont hurt her.
